Bare copper bus bar type segment is expected to drive the highest market growth during the forecast period
On the basis of bus bar type, the Middle East, North Africa and Pakistan bus bar market is segmented into bare copper bus bar, aluminum bus bar, and tin plated bus bar.
Bare copper bus bar segment is expected to be valued at US$ 653.0 million by 2027 from US$ 401.1 million in 2018, witnessing a CAGR of 5.6% over the forecast period from 2019 to 2027
Copper bus bar is the most commonly used bus bar for residential, commercial and industrial purposes. Copper bus bars are harder compared to aluminum bus bars, hence are ideal in complex current applications that require greater in-built resistance against corrosion and mechanical damage, so that it can provide better resistance in adverse weather conditions. Copper bars have less chance of developing problems in clamped joints due to cold metal flow under prolonged application of high contact pressure.
The temperature variations encountered under service conditions require certain amount of flexibility in the design. The lower coefficient of linear expansion of copper reduces the degree of flexibility required. Copper will therefore allow more compact installations in a variety of systems. Moreover, space considerations are of greater importance than weight.
Greater weight may make installation slightly more difficult, however, since electromagnetic stress in the bar is usually more severe than the stress due to its weight, the mounting design is largely unaffected. Such compact installation helps to reduce the overall costs, service costs and improve the reliability.
The higher melting point and thermal conductivity of copper reduce the possibility of damage resulting from hot spots or accidental flashovers in service.
These properties have led to increasing use of copper bus bars which is expected to facilitate growth of the copper bus bar segment over the forecast period.

Furthermore, bus bars are used in various conductor types such as, panel boards, switchboards, bus-way systems, and low & medium voltage switchgear, among others.
Different bus bar systems such as double bus double breaker arrangement, main and transfer bus arrangement, and single bus-bar arrangement are easy to install and operate. Thus, high-rise buildings used for residential or commercial purposes prefer to use bus bars instead of conventional cabling. Furthermore, bus bars have significant advantages over cable such as, minimum spatial volume, improved electrical performance, ease of maintenance, fast installation, and energy savings in data center operation.
Market Dynamics
Bus bars are used in power infrastructure such as switchgear, substations, transformers, and other transmission and distribution (T&D) equipment. Bus bars are essential components in electrical power grids as these can decrease power loss by reducing the corona effect. The bus bar market is expected to exhibit growth at significant pace, owing to rising electricity demand from countries in the Middle East such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE. To meet the electricity demand, the Saudi Arabia is estimated to increase its power generation capacity from 77 GW in 2014 to 156 GW by 2040, according to Coherent Market Insights. In addition to this, in January 2014, ABB Ltd. received an order of US$ 60 million for substations that will boost the transmission capacity as well as supply electricity to King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC).
Furthermore, in MEA region, investment in power infrastructure is growing, with rising demand for electricity. For instance, in December 2018, Larsen & Toubro Limited (L&T), an Indian multinational conglomerate company, won a major order for the construction of 115kV substations with associated cable circuits and transmission lines in Saudi Arabia. The orders are for construction and other engineering job for power transmission and distribution (T&D) project. These projects either involve setting up of new plants and T&D network, leading to an increased demand for bus bars.
The price of copper depends on the ability of copper suppliers to extract and transport the product, as well as demand for goods and services that use copper. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) outlook 2018, an international organization, in 2017, the average price of copper was US$ 6,166 per metric ton compared to US$ 6,523 per metric ton in 2018. Furthermore, due to high fluctuations in copper and aluminum prices, key bus bar vendors have to use a major share of their manufacturing cost for acquiring these raw materials. According to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, the total cost of copper and aluminum metals account for roughly 50% of the total production cost. The cost variations in the supply chain becomes critical for manufacturers, as there is no product differentiation and the price of a product determines the dominance of a supplier in the market. Hence, fluctuations in raw material prices is one of the major factors which is expected to hamper the market growth during forecast period.
